John and Rose Nomads live in a van, and have been for twenty something years. Check it out. (I am so youtube motivated now. I wanna make a vid of the inside of my van, which will be awkward and bumpy cause my webcam is built into the laptop.)

Southern Stripping
I get hired simply by walking in the door and announcing that I want to dance. The door girl turns and calls to the manager at the bar.

I don’t know how I managed to go through life for so long without having read it, except that everyone always talks about it as something to read before Derrick Jensen, and I thought, why read what leads up to what I’ve already… Continue reading Book Review: Ishmael by Daniel Quinn
